Pat & Vanna mention they tape ahead of time, but yesterday was Vanna's birthday. What she would've done? Eh...go to bed early.

This is why we watch. Not only for the gut punch, but the random acts of insanity that make you cheer for total strangers, the brothers doing "YMCA," or the wife jumping into her husbands arms which led to the greatest ad lib between Pat & Vanna, etc, etc, etc).

There's a reason this show has been on so long.

I'll never quit watching. Hopefully, you won't either.

This recap was actually planned for last month, but I never got around to doing it because of recent uploads that have blocked my pathway.

When bobbymgsk got the recap up, I looked for video of the episode, downloaded it, and then formatted it shortly after...only for it to leave it hanging in the drafts for about a month.

Also, R3 lowkey has to be one of the funniest moments of the entire season, alone.

Apparently, I forgot to turn on an option that turns off the ability for guests to reply to the S1-25 boards. That has been fixed.

Regardless, Corey, we don't allow video requests on these boards, and I doubt he has access to those specific episodes.
